What is the role of yeast in baking? (2022)
  • Step 1: Yeast is a tiny living organism, similar to a fungus.
  • Step 2: When you mix yeast with sugar and warm water, the yeast starts to eat the sugar.
  • Step 3: As the yeast eats the sugar, it produces carbon dioxide gas and alcohol.
  • Step 4: The carbon dioxide gas gets trapped in the dough, causing it to expand and rise.
  • Step 5: This rising process makes the bread or baked goods light and fluffy.
